FEATURED VIDEO
 The EasyWeb Torque Controller is an open-loop control device for maintaining a set tension during web winding or unwinding operations. Unlike DFE's tension controllers that take an input signal from tension transducers (load cells), web tension with the EasyWeb™ is maintained by controlling motor or brake torque based on the calculated variation of roll diameter as a roll is wound or unwound. An inertia compensation parameter is provided to obtain greater control of web tension during changes in line speed. Visit http://www.dfe.com/products/easyweb.html for more info.
